Poor Man's Macaroni

This recipe is again from my friend Amity who got it from her mother in-law that had 12 children!!! So I call this Poor Man's Macaroni because with 12 kids there is no way they could have been anything else!!! Plus the ingredients in this recipe are perfect for the poor man's budget. This recipe may sound wierd to some, I questioned if it would be good or not but I was desperate for something super fast and super easy so of course I called my friend and this is what she suggested, in my desperation I gave it a try and was pleasantly surpised how yummy it was.
I also don't have a picture because I didn't make this this week, but thought I would put it on here if anyone was in need of something fast easy and out of the pantry!!!

(Mom, I know you wouldn't like this but maybe you will have a good suggestion to spice this one up!!!)

Ingredients:
1 box elbow macaroni
1 can tomato sauce (the small can)
cheddar cheese (as much as you like, I use about a cup to a cup and a half)

Directions:
Cook macaroni as directed, add sauce, add cheese stir and serve.

Again, it may sound yuck to some, but Dennis and I both really liked it and Ian and Cadey both will eat this. I keep some noodles sauce and cheese free for Will, so he will eat and Viv almost never eats dinner any way so most of us are happy for this meal. I am also picky about leftovers and this one does reheat pretty well.

Next time I make it I will add a photo!
